In version 12 and below, total_time is the elapsed time between the execution start and stop, so it includes all underlying events. That includes any IO activity, wait events or nested statements (if pg_stat_statemetns.track is set to all). This corresponds to the new total_exec_time field in version 13 and later. > Just to say that for PostgreSQL 13, total_time is replaced by “total_exec_time + total_plan_time” Indeed, as this version also tracks planning activity.
